We did the first year - some pitches can be noisy, but the further you get into the site the less of a problem it is.  The other times we were there we didn't notice the noise.  Like anywhere I think it depends on which way the wind is blowing - we can hear a bypass which is about three miles away, when the wind is in the wrong direction!

The bathrooms do make some pitches small - but we were given a choice of several pitches with bathrooms, and knew which were the larger ones.  The first time we had a private bathroom we couldn't get our awning on the pitch - so we just went out and bought a gazebo from the local hypermarket for 12 euros.  Our sons still use it when they go camping! 

Have you had a look at Les Sablettes on Camping Street View?  Looks to have lots and lots of statics.  I must admit it's not a site I've noticed or had a look around!

If you go back to Agde I'd second going to St Laurent le Minier...absolutely brilliant waterfall and river swimming, although it does get busy! Our boys (13 & 10 at the time) loved rushing down the current on a rubber ring before drifting to a stop, and plenty of space to sunbathe and do some proper swimming too. And the Gorges d'Heric were great too.

Thanks - both those sound absolutely great. Will definitely be going there! Think we will go for Champs Blancs although looks like we may have missed the boat for private sanitary facilities :( Got held up booking this year as my daughter has been really ill and in hospital.

Thanks for showing me Camping Street View, Val - what a fabulous website!!

Aloha at Serignan Plage is a great site but very popular so may already be fully booked. Direct beach access and great slides for the kids.

just looked and surprised to see Aloha have pitches free from the 12th August. They have a new website, not as good as the previous one. I see they have the airstream we saw onsite now avaialable to rent!!

Hi We used to take our kids to El delphin campsite at Torella Montgris near Estartis on costa brava. They loved it and we went every summer hols until they were grown up,even though they are in their 30s they still talk about el delphin and will take their kids one day.Its right on the beach and has fabulous pools for the kids,great security on site also .Have a look at their site online,and I think they are acsi this year that will make them cheaper out of season.
